What readers are saying:

'...  a funny tale of mateship and enterprise, with a tinge of daftness ... With silliness, action and a little tension, The Big Dig will keep primary aged readers turning pages.'
- Sally Murphy,
Aussie Reviews

'Meg McKinlay nail[s] the voices of Upper Primary school boys, from their love of action and adventure to their unshakable belief in their own extreme intelligence … Get ready to snort into the pages or laugh out loud before you can stop yourself.
- Jo Burnell, The Reading Stack

'Dive in as the boys take you on their cool adventure ... Meg Mckinlay is an author who in my opinion can paint a picture in your head.'
